"Then You'll Be Free" lyrics

"Then You'll Be Free"

Oh I've known for so long
I barely manage to hang on
But there's some reasons why I just can't let go
It won't be long till the baby's gone
Today's she's here, tomorrow grown
The ties that binds us will be behind us
Then you'll be free

Oh it's past my suppertime
That hunger pain has made me lose my mind
I've been starvin' for some love you gave away
I'd like to make you pay for making you stay
I've given you life and a day
The ties that binds us will be behind us
Then you'll be free

Oh what you want is what you get
Ah but I ain't ready to give it to you yet
You love to party and the parties you love
[?] for heartache you never think of

It won't be long till the baby's gone
Today's she's here, tomorrow grown
The ties that binds us will be behind us
Then you'll be free

The ties that binds us will be behind us
Then you'll be free
